EDTA - 17% Solution Specifically engineered with LOWER pH for optimal performance! For best outcomes, a LOWER pH is more important than concentration

As pH increases, the availability of calcium ions from hydroxyapitite for chelation decreases. A pilot study using concentrations of alkaline (pH 11.3) solutions of EDTA showed them to be less effective in removing the smear layer.

Vista’s EDTA: • Prepares dentin walls for better ADHESION of filling materials • Opens dentin tubules • Removes smear layer and dentin mud • Enhances cleansing The optimal pH for EDTA solutions should be between 7.5 - 9.

Demineralizing effects of EDTA at different concentrations and pH.

Studies show: Lower pH is CRITICAL to performance*

The purpose of this study was to compare effects of concentration and pH variations of EDTA on dentin demineralization. Twenty extracted, human permanent teeth with single canals were used in this study. Demineralizing effects of EDTA solutions at 10% and 17% concentrations at pH 7.5 and 9.0 were determined by measuring the amount of liberated phosphorus 1, 3, 5, 10, and 15 min after exposure. Results showed that the amount of phosphorus liberated from dentin was greater with increased EDTA concentration and increased time of exposure, and was more effective at neutral pH than pH 9.0. The pH of EDTA solutions did not display any significant alterations during the demineralization process. J Endod. 2009 Jan;35(1):95-7. Epub 2008 Nov 7. Williamson AE, Cardon JW, Drake DR.

A scanning electron microscope evaluation of four root canal irrigation regimens. A scanning electron microscope was used to evaluate the debridement capabilities of four irrigation regimens on both instrumented and uninstrumented root canal surfaces. The combination of NaOCI and EDTA used alternately completely removed the smear layer from the instrumented root canal surfaces as well as the pulpal remnants and predentin from the uninstrumented surfaces. In addition, the combination of NaOCI and EDTA caused the exposed calcospherites on the uninstrumented surfaces to have an eroded appearance. J Endod. 1987 Apr;13(4):147-57.
